Respectfully kissing the hands of elders
Hadith 686
اَخْبَرَنَا سَعِیْدُ بْنُ عَامِرِ الضَّبْعِیِّ، نَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ زِیَادِ بْنِ عَلَاقَةَ، عَنْ اُسَامَةَ ابْنِ شَرِیْكٍ قَالَ: شَهِدْتُ الْاَعَارِبَ یَسْأَلُوْنَ رَسُوْلَ اللّٰهِ صَلَّی اللّٰهُ عَلَیْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَکَرَ مِثْلَهٗ۔ وَزَادَ فِیْهِ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا قَامُوْا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ جَعَلُوْا یُقَبِّلُوْنَ یَدَہٗ قَالَ: فَضَمَمْتُ اِلٰی یَدِهِ فَاِذَا هُوَ اَطْیَبُ مِنَ الْمِسْكِ.
Sayyiduna Usamah bin Shuraik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: I was present with the Bedouins when they were asking questions to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Then the narrator mentioned the same (incident), and in it, he narrated this addition: When they stood before him (the Prophet, peace be upon him), they began to kiss his blessed hand. The narrator said: I touched his blessed hand with mine, and it was more fragrant than musk.
